Exotics_Builder Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Came in late yesterday afternoon from Latvia (of all places). A&N Model Trucks 1/24 scale 2018 Dodge Power Wagon Pickup. Well detailed kit, but is a curbside unless you order the optional engine/engine bay option. There also is an optional suspension package. Shipped from vendor on September 8 and arrived the 29th. Not included in the kit, but in my parts bin is this supercharger. It has got me to thinking. SHould I or should I not? The only unfortunate thing is my kit did not come with the decal sheet. I contacted the vendor and have yet to hear back.
niteowl7710 Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Latvia of all places... Well of all the places they could live, the live in Latvia, soooo Definitely gets filed on the "must obtain" list.
Mopar - D Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Thanks for sharing what your kit looks like. Hopefully mine is coming soon and will you let us know what you find out about your missing decals.

Still would like to get the ZoomOn version that's a HK/Japanese style flat bed. Cause I have an infinite amount of time, space and money dollars...
zaina Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 My decal sheet was missing too. I contacted them and they got back to me pretty quickly. They said they will send one to me the the next day.
Exotics_Builder Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 They are sending out the decal sheet on friday, next mail day for them
martinfan5 Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 Hoping they remembered to include the decals in mine ?
Exotics_Builder Posted October 3, 2020 Posted October 3, 2020 Please allow me to share detail photos of the kit contents of the A&N Model Trucks 2018 Ram Power Wagon. I also included photos of the 2 optional "kits" I got, the engine option and the suspension option. There are 3 other options, bull bar, snorkel and LED spotlights that I elected not to get. This model is aimed mainly for street and mild off road. I will likely be using Fireball Modelworks LED light bars and 3D Scale Parts wheels and tires. Time to ruminate as I clear off the Work in Progress. Link to Flickr Album...
Mopar - D Posted October 4, 2020 Posted October 4, 2020 Gerry thanks for sharing your very detailed pictures of this kit. How are the directions for assembling it?

They actually have them on their website. Here is the link to the truck instructions https://an-modeltrucks.com/downloads/power-w-2500-pickup-truck-full-resin-kit-1-24/
Mopar - D Posted October 4, 2020 Posted October 4, 2020 Thanks Gerry! This is really helpful and will allow me some time to go over them while I’m waiting for the kit to arrive.
chuckyr Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 With detail like this, photo etch disc brakes would look nice.

But, I am looking forward to their RS6 Avant DTM that I hope will soon be available. Seems to be a take on this car Where did you see that Alpha were doing this car? I can't find it on their web site or Facebook page.

I love the 1:1 RS6 Avant but it is way out of my price range. ?
AmericanMuscleFan Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 Santa Claus came by yesterday and he left this on my doorstep! It is complete, no missing parts, waterslide decal and photo etched in the box. I didn't realize when I ordered it that the engine was not part of the "full resin kit" as stated so I ordered it yesterday along with the Detailled Suspension. I must say that's a very beautiful kit but not for every budget... In the end, with the shipping costs and the exchange rate, it will have cost me the tidy sum of $300.00 Canadian dollars... I'm not sure it's reasonable anymore... Maybe it will retain its value if it becomes a short-run offer? Time will tell... ?
martinfan5 Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 No update since it left on the 30th, going on two 2 weeks .

Mine was in Limbo for about 2 1/2 weeks and then popped up on the "radar". I set USPS tracking notification as it came from Chicago to the Pacific Northwest.

Mopar - D Posted October 14, 2020 Posted October 14, 2020 Mine showed up today but the tracking showed as sent to delivery. Mine took 3 weeks to get here.
